SEAN DYCHE is backing his cup flops to bounce back against Chelsea.

Burnley’s shock EFL Cup defeat at Accrington Stanley on Wednesday night stretched their run without a win in the competition to three years.

The 1-0 defeat in extra-time came just four days after the Clarets had been beaten Liverpool to collect their first Premier League win of the season.

Dyche’s men now face a trip to Stamford Bridge with four of the players involved against Accrington - Sam Vokes, Andre Gray, Scott Arfield and George Boyd - set to start against Antonio Conte’s in-form Blues.

But Dyche says the defeat to League Two opposition, when he made 10 changes to his starting line-up, won’t dent confidence.

The Burnley boss said: “That's just football. We delivered two different performances, one very dominant, one less dominant. We got a win against the odds, and then lost against the odds.

“That's sometimes the way it is. It doesn't change the mood. We know the main target this year. It doesn't mean we're diminishing the thought of a cup but the main goal is what we're trying to achieve in the Premier League, we know that.

“We know the challenge that's ahead of us and we know there's a group that we'd more be hoping to get points against and we know there's a group that's more difficult to get points against, particularly away from home, and Chelsea come into that.

“It is the beauty of football, that's why we all love it, when you can go away to these places with a bit of freedom, take on the game and see what comes your way.”

Dyche confirmed he is still on the look-out to try and strengthen his squad before the transfer deadline.

And despite problems getting the players he wants on a limited budget, he is adamant the Clarets will give everything to follow up their landmark win over Liverpool and compete against the big boys.

He added: “It's obvious we're not leading the market with finance and depth of squad, but what will become apparent, and it already has, is we are willing for the challenge and we'll give every inch of ourselves to achieve what we want.”
